Accepted Answer

The cottages are open year-round, and every season in Marlborough offers something different. Spring and summer are popular for vineyard views, new blossom, flowers and fresh fruit, outdoor living and amazing birdlife. Autumn harvest season (late February to late April) is ideal to be immersed in the wine region's busy Vintage, and take advantage of calm weather with bright sunny days. Winter is Marlborough's secret, with crisp mornings opening up to bright blue and often warm days before you settle down for a romantic evening in front of a cozy fireplace.
